‘No Medical Explanation’: Miracle Unfolds as Wheelchair-Bound Woman on Ventilator Raises Hand in Worship, Asks God for Healing By Billy Hallowell for Faith Wire
“There is no medical explanation.” That’s what Father Karl Pung of Saint Mary Cathedral in Lansing, Michigan, said about a parishioner who spent nearly 13 years in a wheelchair.
The woman, who was also on a ventilator after suffering for years with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and autonomic dysfunction, believes she was miraculously healed last month — and Pung agrees.
In a video released by the Diocese of Lansing, Dani Laurion said she was at a special healing service at Saint Mary Cathedral on March 15, 2022, when something astonishing unfolded as she lifted her hands to God in worship.

“I reached up, and I just said, ‘I need you, and I need you to hold me and just take care of me,’” Dani said.
That prayer seemed to spark something inside her. And the result was purportedly a dual miracle that is shocking friends, family, and the public. Watch Dani’s incredible story:
“I felt like somebody had turned water on in both of my ears, and it was going down my body,” Dani said.
Her husband, Doug, who was sitting next to her at the time, said, as Dani had this sensation, someone leading the healing service at the church received a “word of knowledge that somebody’s lungs were being inflated.”
Doug said Dani decided suddenly to remove her portable ventilator. Usually, she would panic without her vent and struggle to reconnect it so she could breathe.
But this time was different.
“There was no panic, no emergency,” he said. “She was just sitting there.”
That miracle of breathing air alone was transformational, but the couple said they received a second blessing. Up to that point, Dani was working with therapists to use a walker, but the couple didn’t have it with them.
